### 2/5 — Used to be ok

*2026-09-01, version 4.0.0*

My last few uploads have been horrible. App is very laggy to the point where it is almost unusable. I don’t have an hour to spare for each upload. Rocketbook, fix this or you’re going to lose a lot of customers.

### 3/5 — Disappointed and Cloud-less

*2026-05-20, version 3.6.5*

Updating my review from 1 to 3, since the app let me in again after a few hours. Not a great experience when so much data can be lost! Always back up your data using a different service. 

Original review: The app won’t allow me to log in after the most recent update. I sign in with my information and the screen fades before I’m back on the log in screen. I try to reset my password- nothing. I try to create a new account- the app tells me that account already exists and I can “link with that account.” I do. Nothing happens. I’m locked out of my notes. If I ever get back in, I’ll just take photos of my notebook and zip them somewhere local. Thanks for not having any error messages or in-app trouble shooting. Great customer experience. Not!

### 4/5 — Great application for the source materials

*2026-05-15, version 3.6.5*

I just really like to archive all I'm working on to their application. If I have one complaint it's that there does not seem to be any way to have android and ios versions of the app to sync my work despite the app having a sign in option.

### 3/5 — Unable to Sync Pages Since Upgrade

*2026-05-07, version 3.6.5*

The ability to scan handwritten notes is wonderful in the business world. Unfortunately with the latest update to the app I can’t sync those scanned notes to my computer making the notebooks useless to me now.

### 1/5 — New update broke app

*2026-04-27, version 3.6.5*

Most recent update broke the app. I was signed out and can no longer log back in. Not sure if it’s getting shut down due to sale or if it’s just broken

### 1/5 — No longer dependable

*2026-04-14, version 3.6.4*

Used this for years but lately it hasn’t worked at all.  Tried to delete app and download again but now I can’t even sign in. Going to find a new app to use now.

### 1/5 — App is Dead

*2026-03-24, version 3.6.4*

I’ve downloaded the app twice now. It just opens to the start screen (solar system) and does absolutely nothing. Is the app dead?

### 1/5 — Cloud cards

*2026-03-23, version 3.6.4*

Don’t buy, scan like normal pages and don’t flip or scan both sides. In general this app when asking for explanation will always end up trying to sell something instead of helping

### 1/5 — What happened?

*2026-03-18, version 3.6.4*

When I started using it last year, it was everything I could ask for.  Great tool with an awesome OCR.  Unfortunately it looks like it no longer works correctly anymore.  I hoped an uninstall, reinstall would help, but nope.  Very sad.

### 1/5 — Très chronophage et beaucoup de bugs

*2026-03-15, version 3.6.4*

Les pages scanner ne se regroupent pas en un seul PDF. Ça vous envoie plusieurs PDF sur une même boîte mail. Les notes sont inutilisables, ça met beaucoup de temps pour regrouper toutes les notes en un PDF … c’est épuisant ça bug et c’est vraiment à revoir c’est un raté complet. 0/10

### 2/5 — Bekukdesi nehezsegek

*2026-03-01, version 3.6.4*

Gyakorlatilag sosem sikerul a megadott alkalmazasba torteno feltoltes. Csak fotoim lesznek…

### 4/5 — Rocketbook and AI is the best combo.

*2026-02-28, version 3.6.4*

I’ve had my Rocketbook notebook for many years now. I love taking handwritten notes. But I don’t like having to manually transfer them to priority list or two digital task management software. Now I can take a picture of my handwritten note and send it to my AI mobile app.  And because I’ve trained my AI app, it knows what to do with my notes. Either automatically add a task to my task management system system, or add an item to one of my recurring meeting notes for future discussion, or to my weekly priority list. My only wish would be for the Rocketbook app to allow me to choose an app on my phone as a default send location so I can automatically send a note to my AI app and save a few manual clicks.

### 1/5 — Newest version

*2026-08-21, version 4.0.0*

Horrible! This latest version makes me sign into Dropbox every single time I have to upload my PDFs to any folder. Today, it won’t even accept my email address. WTH! This app is now becoming useless. Scanning is only half the work. Backing up my scans is the other. Update: I found that if I capitalize my email, it allowed me to log in. But now it doesn’t actually upload!

### 1/5 — The new app is horrible

*2026-08-19, version 4.0.0*

The new app is not streamlined and does not reduce clutter. They added “how to” which is useless for people who have been using the app with no way to get rid of the cards. Yes, it is nice that when you click the camera it immediately comes up, but the interface after you take a screenshot is too busy/cluttered. They need to give a very obvious option to revert to the old app.

### 1/5 — No thank you

*2026-08-12, version 4.0.0*

Two times, in less than half a year, this app just completely wiped all the information stored on it. No warning, no notice no consideration. I couldn’t recommend this app less

### 1/5 — App is Non-Functional

*2026-07-31, version 3.6.5*

The app crashes immediately on all sign-in options, sometimes crashing while still entering credentials.

### 1/5 — Poor backend

*2026-07-10, version 3.6.5*

My years of scanned data has disappeared upon the last update. I am also no longer able to log in via Apple. The support team recommended using the same email address and reset password to set up a password. I followed the instructions and now ended up with an empty library.

### 1/5 — App InOp

*2026-07-01, version 3.6.5*

Tried removing app logged in to website and app still doesn’t work.
I love the concept and interested in giving this a chance however if I’m not able to gain some functionality over the next week I’m moving on.

### 1/5 — Horrivel

*2026-06-17, version 3.6.5*

Não consigo mais entrar e perdi todas as minhas anotacoes porque o app simplesmente nao me deixa entrar, já tentei de tudo

### 1/5 — Fix your log in

*2026-05-19, version 3.6.5*

Fix your log in

### 1/5 — Can’t login

*2026-05-18, version 3.6.5*

Can’t login - tried everything. This isn’t my first try either. Reset password, still just sits there. It’s no wonder I’m not getting all the value out of my rocketbooks  - can’t use the app!

### 1/5 — Disappointed and Cloud-less

*2026-05-01, version 3.6.5*

The app won’t allow me to log in after the most recent update. I sign in with my information and the screen fades before I’m back on the log in screen. I try to reset my password- nothing.

### 5/5 — Love it!

### 5/5 — Essential

*2026-05-23, version 3.6.5*

My Rocketbook has become essential to my workflow. As a pastor, I am constantly studying and taking notes. Rocketbook allows me to then seamlessly transfer my handwritten notes into text. This is a huge blessing and I am so thankful that Rocketbook will continue!

*2026-04-15, version 3.6.4*

I really enjoyed this app. It was a lot of fun. Especially when sketching in the medium and pocket size Rocketbook.

### 5/5 — Rocketbook App

*2026-03-10, version 3.6.4*

Es muy útil cuando tengo que estudiar ,lo que sí deberían mejorar cuando escanea las letras en porque la mayoría de veces en vez de poner la letra “i” te pone un • como este y aveces te lo hace con otras letras .

### 5/5 — Always great

*2026-02-25, version 3.6.4*

Love these notebooks, and have for years now. They’re high quality and strong. 

The app is solid and lets me connect to just about any Cloud service I could ask for. 

Excellent products, will be continuing to use Rocket Books.

### 5/5 — Such a Handy Tool

*2026-02-04, version 3.6.2*

I love this app because it allows me to take written notes and scan them into my laptop or phone, memorize the info quicker, and keep it organized and always accessible.
